NEGRO SUFFRAGE.
Why 1t Is a Thorn in the Flesh or Re-
publican Demagogues.

Why 1t Is a Thorn in the Flesh OF Ne-
publican Demagogues.
The Sherman Foraker racket in Ohio
is attracting so much attention among
the collar button Republicans of the
East that it is not going out of the
way to say that these two lively partl-
sans have struck the keynote of the
next Republican campaign. The re-
marks of these men are taken up by
the Philadelphia Bulletin, which, in a
general wae, is mild newspaper.
Referring to the votes of the negro
at the South, the Bulletin remarks that
"by virtue of the existence of these
votes, the Democrats hold thirty-eight
seats in the electoral college and
about twenty-four seats in Congress.
To this sad announcement the Bulletin
adds this heart-rending reflection:
mo thoughtful man can contemplate this
vast power which Southern politicians possess
without concern 1t will be one of the most in
tercsting questions of the future how the South
can be compelled to abandon this advantage,
and how this inert, ignorant and helpless popu-
lation can be made an active, intelligent and
untrammeled force in exercising the right OF
franchise
1t is a pity that the Republicans
should be compelled to chew this bit
ter cud, but chew it they must. RAM
pant Republicans like the editor of the
Bulletin should have thought of these
things before. We submit that it is a
little late in the day for Republican
paitisans to be inquiring in public how
the ''inert, helpless and ignorant"
negro voters lean be made an active,
intelligent and untrammeled force in
exercising the right of franchise
This mOmentous question should
have been asked when the proposition
TO confer the privileges of suffrage on
the negro was debatable. This propO-
siticn is no longer debatable. The
negroes nave the privileges of the bal
lot, and, in the South, they are not
exercising it in the interest of the Re-
publican party. This is where the
shoe pinches. This i. where the trouble
arises.
What is the remedy? Well, tits per-

HUMMING BIRDS NESTS.
Remarkably Delicate, Cunningly Made and
CharminGly Cozy Affairs.

Remarkably Delicate, Cunningly Made and
CharminGIy Cozy Affairs.
Coz;ly nestled in the very tiniest little
nest, so soft and elastic that even her
delicate plumage is unruflied by con-
tact with its moss-covered sides, we
lind our humming- bird. High on the
gnarled and twisted branch of dog
wood she has built this fairy home; and
therein, with the overhanging leaves
for canopy, the little sylph is brood
ing. How shall describe the cunning
little structure? A few weeks ago the
building was commenced, but on such
a small scall that the foundation was
laid ere the site was discovered by US.
Soft puffs from the blossoms of oak and
chestnut, bits of the softest brown
fungus and scraps of gray moses that
grow in secret places known only to
these little fairies, were worked into
the walls, and gradually the little cup
like house approached completion.
Little flakes of lichen and bard, veri-
table diminutive clapboardS, were next

ing so we'll with the tree bark as to con-
ceal it from all but the closest observer,
and often, though knowing its location
so well, have missed it for an instant,
so cunninglY is it placed. A dead twig
projects from the branch a few inches
to one side, and here the little wood
sprites frequently perch. There is the
male now, his ruby throat all ablaze as
a sunbeam covers him for an instant
with gold.
And now, as he snuggles close beside
his mate, he is evidently telling her
where her breakfast is waiting in the
trumpet flower he tapped for her last
night, and which is half-flIei with
nectar this morning, accumulated drop
by drop during the cool hours of dark
ness. Like flash she is off, and be
takes her place to keep the chill from
the tiny eggs. These frail little crea-
lures have gradually become accus-
toned to my presence. At first they
were nervous, and would dart down to
within five or six feet of me, and there,
poised on its whirring wings, closely
inspect the intruder, utttcring the while
sundry peeps and curious little cries.
Now that they are convinced that no
harm is intended, they do not even
leave the nest at my approach. What
adreamlife is theirs! gliding in zigzag
lines over the flower beds, now sus-
pended almost motionless over a lily
bloom, now racing with humble bee for
a honeyed prize, or dashing at the spar
rows and robins, and speedily putting
them to fight by the fury of their onset
What they do or where they go when it
storms l do not know, but at the first
returning CLEAN of sunshine they are
back again with the rapidity of thought,
slipping the raindrops from the flowers.
And when bedtime comes, what won
derful stories of the sunlight the little
things must tell each other, as cuddling
close up there in the dark, they listen
to the cooni coon! coon! coon! of the
insects, and watch the fireiies guiding
the moths among the trees by the light
of their torches,-Forest and Stream.

TIRED OUT.
With jar and jolt, the ferry-boat

With jar and jolt, the ferry-boat
Into its mooring swung;
The homeward crowd upon its bows,
In mute impatience hung.
Then all arose, and hurried forth
That ceaseless tide of men.
That every morn flowed TO the town,
At night, to ebb again.
With hurried step they iostled out,
And sought the busy street;
Nor needed any one child
That rose not from her seat
A frail and slender little girl,
Whose face, so wan and pale,
With great dark rings about the eye,
Told all the mournful tale.
AL day within the factory,
So faint she scarce could stand,
Shed kept a: her allotted task,
With weak and trembling hand;
She mnst not stop, though she should sink
AL lifeless 10 the floor:
Her work alone gaunt hunger kept
Without her mothers door.
Week after week. through weary months,
This child so old with care,
Had staggered meath a load of toll
She was not made 10 bear;
And Oft, at night. when on the boat,
odSON OOh II " III HlSblul Cgts
And wished tIat pillOwed on the waves
Her weary head might lie.
<'Come. all ashore - the boatman cried,
Who, passing spied her there:
S'Come. ali ashore and then he stopped
ASLEEP, well declare!
Come, wake up then he stopped again,
Filled with a nameless dread;
Then called the other hands to come
<'What if the child were 'dead,''
Her lips were mute, and closed her eyes,
Nor breath within her stirred:
But when they raised her in their hands,
A feeble moan was heard.
They laid her in an ambulance,
That bore the child away;
And soon within a hospital
Ali motiOnless she lay.
All through the silent hours Of night
They heard her feebly moan,
And say. with low and fitful breath,
In plaintive monotone:
81 am SO tired. 1 am so tired,
And yet so much to do;
SO tired, and yet must not stop
Until my work is through
The night dragged by the day came on;
They watched beside her bed.
She opened not her eyes, nor moved,
But ever family said:
AZ feel as if 1 could not stand
Until the close of day,
o, would might lie down tonight
And there forever stay.''
That evening as the clock struck six,
The patient raised her head,
And counted of the strokes, and smiled,
'''Tis time to stop" she said,
- nj m 10
And then she spoke no more
Her life had struck its six o'clock,
Her day of work was DER.

A shower came down and kissed the earth with loving tenderness, And every forest monarch sage received its mute caress; The flowers and the meadow brook drank in it's sweetness rare, And e'en the sun smiled through the trees, and made the scene more fair A mother and her little child stood meath a spreading oak; The child was mute with wonder as thus the "Look, Raymond, dear, 'cross wonder hill, to- ward the sky so blue, Do you not see that lovely arch of colors bold and true? "see how 1t spans the vaulted skies and dips Then peeks at us from way behind that grand old forest treel One day, 'tis said, monarch came, from worlds far of from ours, And hid pot of gold just where the rainbow touched the flowers.

 They all felt that she should be credited with the prevention of mu- tiny and bloodshed, the safety of the ship and the lives of the officers. Pre- senting their respects to Mrs. White, they assured her and the officers that they would be peaceable and subordi- nate for the rest of the voyage.

IN view of the centennial of the American Constitution in September, special interest attaches to an article which will appear in Scri5ne,'s Mug azine for that month, relating to "An Unpublished Draft of a National Con- stitution by Edmund Randolph, Found among the Papers of George Mason," which recently came into the possession of Moncure D. Conway in the course of his extended researches while preparing life ot Randolph. This interesting historical document shows what a strong anti-States Right sentiment existed among many of the framers of the National Consti- tuition, even in the south. Light is thrown on other interesting points of discussion. A part of the document will be reproduced in fac simile.
